RESAAS Signs Joint Venture with San Francisco Title Technology Company to Tokenize Real Estate, Backed by Investment Bank US Capital Global to Raise up to $7 Million USD

RESAAS Services Inc. (TSXV:RSS), a cloud-based technology platform for the real estate industry, is pleased to announce that it has entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with San Francisco-based blockchain company, Real Estate Consortia Inc. Under the terms of the Joint Venture, RESAAS will be issuing a first-to-market, patent-pending title token developed by Real Estate Consortia for every property in the United States and Canada.

As part of the Joint Venture, signed on July 27th, 2018, RESAAS and Real Estate Consortia have engaged San Francisco based Investment Bank, US Capital Global, to raise up to $7 million USD on a best efforts basis through convertible notes for the Joint Venture partnership.

As the number of households in the US continues to grow, now crossing 125 million in 2017, accurately tracking information related to these properties such as the loans backing them, title information, and history of the transactions is essential. The mechanisms currently in place across the US are fragmented, incomplete and inefficient.

“We are excited to enter a Joint Venture with Real Estate Consortia, and bring to market a compelling use of tokenization for the real estate sector,” said Tom Rossiter, CEO of RESAAS. “We have become increasingly aware of opportunities within real estate for intelligent use of blockchain technology. We believe Real Estate Consortia’s title token technology to be an accretive addition to our members, our business, and the entire real estate landscape across North America.”

Revenues for NewCo will be generated via a virtual ‘Deal Room’ running on the RESAAS platform. The Deal Room is where property transactions will be tokenized. For every home transacted in the Deal Room, NewCo will receive a fee based on the commission generated from the transaction. Agents and clients involved will also earn a portion of the fee, which will drive adoption, engagement and retention of the service. All profits generated through NewCo will be shared equally by RESAAS and Real Estate Consortia.

“Our team believes we’ve found a perfect partner to launch our patent-pending token technology to the North American real estate market with RESAAS,” said Teresa Grobecker, CEO of Real Estate Consortia. “Having built San Francisco’s first real estate brokerage to accept Bitcoin, we have curated our token around keeping the Realtor as the hero in the transaction. This is the perfect application for blockchain technology, allowing anyone to backcheck and validate a property’s history and provenance.”

By using blockchain technology and leveraging it’s distributed ledger benefit, homeowners will be able to access the title token through their licensed real estate agent on the RESAAS Platform. The token will provide updates about the property title and recorded claims on the property. Homeowners will be able to add historical information about their property, allowing them to track the lifespan of their home. The more information clients add, the higher the property’s provenance (title score), the more desirable, marketable, or better loan rate the consumer can receive.

RESAAS intends to initially offer this service to its real estate association and enterprise clients, before rolling out the service network-wide. This will maximize its adoption and allow these organizations to help initiate progression within organized real estate.
